How we handle shower tray repair in Old Hill
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Old Hill and across Sandwell.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Old Hill
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When to call us in Old Hill
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A damaged area around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Old Hill
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
